YEAR2023

Harvard Innovation Labs’ President’s Innovation Challenge (PIC) is venture competition for Harvard students and select Harvard alumni. This event is a touchstone event for the Harvard Innovation Labs and its members, offering an opportunity for a slice of $515,000 in funding for their start-up.

This project is full-fledged event design and direction for both streaming and in-person attendance. There’s a campaign comprised of various digital assets (digital displays, email, social) as well as event design for the run of the show: transition animations, title cards, winning moments, and probably some other pieces to the complicated, but very fun to design, puzzle.

ABOUT
I’m an art director and designer with a background in photography and librarianship. I am currently designing for Morningstar.

Before my career in design I was an academic librarian at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

In my spare time I maintain a personal art practice that is based in photography. Since 2017, I have published and edited Challenger, a BMX magazine that takes multiple forms. Its current form is a hiatus.
